The challenge
Supplier oversight managed outside the QMS creates traceability and compliance gaps
- No structured qualification processSupplier approvals managed in spreadsheets or email are hard to evidence during audits.
- Audit findings disconnected from CAPAWithout a linked system, audit findings often sit unresolved and untracked until the next inspection reveals them again.
- No direct collaboration with suppliersManaging SCARs, questionnaires, and CAPAs with suppliers by email is slow, error-prone, and not auditable.
Our solution
A connected supplier management system with a dedicated supplier portal
- Structured qualification and approval workflowsQualify new suppliers, manage requalification, and track approval status in a fully documented, auditable workflow.
- Audit scheduling and finding managementPlan audits, record findings during the audit, and link them directly to CAPA, all in one system.
- Supplier portal for direct collaborationSuppliers can respond to SCARs, complete questionnaires, and manage assigned CAPAs directly through a dedicated portal, no email chains needed.
